Sorry black folk, you're not allowed to use it either.
But defense lawyers said the 61-year-old Carmona, a black man of Puerto Rican descent, had a much different experience with the word. Raised by a single mother in a New York City public housing project, he became addicted to heroin in his teens and broke it with the help of drug counselors who employed tough love and tough language.
Wait, wait, wait. It's ok for you to use it because someone previously used it to help you beat drugs? Sweet. By that logic, you can have your employees take methadone.
